Aotea Electric Northland is a local electrical contractor based at Port Whangarei. We design and install solar power, battery storage and EV charging for homes and businesses from Kamo to Onerahi and beyond. Because we’re based locally, the team that installs your system is the same team that services it. Every project starts with a free appraisal and a quote built around your home or business.
Solar works best when it’s planned alongside the rest of your electrical system. Because we’re electricians first, our team can look at your switchboard, wiring, heat pump and EV charging needs at the same time as your solar. You get one point of contact, one team on site and one company responsible for the result.
We also know Whangarei homes well. Older villas often need a switchboard upgrade before solar can go in, while many new builds can be set up for solar from day one. Either way, we handle the full job without bringing in another contractor.
We install Sigenergy’s SigenStack system for homes and small commercial sites. We use Sigenergy for its build quality and its stackable battery modules, which means you don’t have to predict all your future power needs on day one. Start with the battery capacity that suits your budget now, then add modules to the same stack as your needs change. This flexibility is useful if you’re planning ahead for:
If an EV is part of your plans, your Sigenergy system can include an AC or DC charger. AC chargers suit overnight charging at home, while DC chargers charge considerably faster. Find out more about our EV charger installation service.
In Whangarei, your solar system needs approval from Northpower before it can export power to the grid. This is done through a Distributed Generation (DG) application. We process the application on your behalf, so the connection side is handled as part of your installation.
As Master Electricians Quality Assured members, our residential work is backed by the Master Electricians $20,000 workmanship guarantee. Sigenergy inverters and batteries carry a 10-year warranty and AC EV chargers carry 3 years, and we support you through any warranty claim. We’re also SEANZ (Sustainable Energy Association New Zealand) members, which makes us approved installers for solar loans from ASB, ANZ, Westpac, BNZ and Kiwibank. With our office in Port Whangarei, servicing and future expansion are handled by the team that installed your system.
Offices, retail stores, warehouses and workshops tend to use most of their power during the working day. That lines up well with solar generation, which peaks in the middle of the day. For many businesses, it means more of the power they use comes from their own roof.
We already provide commercial and industrial electrical services across Whangarei, so we understand what’s at stake when power affects your operation. Small commercial sites can use SigenStack. For larger commercial and industrial installations, we custom select products from a range of suppliers to suit your site and demand.
